THE SIMPLE VEGANISTA: Mashed Chickpea Salad Sandwich. I love this mashed chickpea salad alone or on a bed of leafy lettuce topped with tomatoes, pumpkin seeds and a drizzle of lemon juice.

I've made it plenty of times over the year and never tire of it. So what's another great way to enjoy this salad? Why, in a sandwich of course! Gather a few slices of your favorite bread, some leafy greens, mash an avocado to spread if you like and this is one great sandwich. Full of protein, fiber, texture and flavor.
THE SIMPLE VEGANISTA: MASHED CHICKPEA SALAD. Since I eat this salad all the time, I figured it was time to post it here.

This is one of my favorite to go lunches lately. It reminds me of a potato or egg salad. I typically serve this on a bed of chopped romaine or sometimes arugula. I'll add sliced tomatoes and cilantro along the side and top with salt, cracked pepper and paprika along with a squeeze of lemon. This will be what I graze on for most of the day.
